Job Management Partner 1/Performance Management Planning and Configuration Guide
Performance Management monitors operations of the monitoring agents by executing processes that have various functions. A process performed by the functions that comprise the Performance Management program is called a service. This section describes Performance Management services.
The following figure gives an overview of Performance Management services.
Figure 4-1 Overview of Performance Management services
You can check properties and the status of services in the monitoring console by selecting the Services window of PFM - Web Console. You can also stop services.

(1) Service types
The following table lists and describes the functions and names of the Performance Management services. Performance Management services have service IDs in addition to the service names described in the table. The system uses service IDs to execute commands and to display in the monitoring console. For details on service IDs, see B.1 Naming rules for services.
Table 4-1 PFM - Manager services
Service name Function Detail Name Server Service configuration information management Manages the service configuration information such as registration and update of the Performance Management service information. Master Manager System integrated management The main server is the core of PFM - Manager. Manages the definition information of reports and alarms, and transmits the definition information. View Server Monitoring console communication server Manages the communication processing when connected to PFM - Web Console. Correlator Alarm event transmission control Controls alarm event transmissions between services. Master Store Event data management Records the event data from each instance of PFM - Agent and PFM - RM in the Store database and manages the data. Trap Generator SNMP trap issuance Issues SNMP traps when alarm events occur due to the monitoring agent data exceeding a threshold value. Action Handler Action execution Executes actions to inform the user of the system status such as errors, when alarm events occur due to the monitoring agent data exceeding a threshold value. Status Server Status management Manages the status of the Performance Management services. Agent Collector Health check status collection Collects the following operating statuses and monitors thresholds:
Processes the data when real-time reports are displayed in the PFM - Web Console browser.
- Operating status of PFM - Agent and PFM - RM services
- Operating status of the hosts running the PFM - Agent or PFM - RM
- Operating status of the monitored host of PFM-RM
Agent Store Health check status management Records the following collected operating information into the Store database and manages this data.
Processes the data when historical reports are displayed in the PFM - Web Console browser. Processes the data when ODBC-compliant application programs are used.
- Operating status of PFM - Agent and PFM - RM services
- Operating status of the hosts running the PFM - Agent or PFM - RM
- Operating status of the monitored host of PFM-RM
Table 4-2 PFM - Web Console services
Service name Function Detail PFM - Web Console Web application execution function This is the main service of PFM - Web Console. Processes connection to PFM - Manager and requests from the browser. PFM - Web Service http server function Manages the communication processing with the browser. Table 4-3 PFM - Base services
Service name Function Detail Action Handler# Action execution Executes actions to inform the user of the system status such as errors, when alarm events occur due to the monitoring agent data exceeding a threshold value. Status Server# Status management Manages the status of the Performance Management services.

- The system places only one of the PFM - Base services on the host when there are multiple instances of PFM - Agents or PFM - RM on the same host.
Table 4-4 PFM - Agent services
Service name Function Detail Agent Collector Performance data collection Collects the performance data of monitoring agents and monitors thresholds. Processes the data when real-time reports are displayed in the PFM - Web Console browser. Agent Store Performance data management Records the collected performance data into the Store database and manages this data. Processes the data when historical reports are displayed in the PFM - Web Console browser. Processes the data when ODBC-compliant application programs are used. Table 4-5 PFM - RM services
Service name Function Detail Remote Monitor Collector Performance data collection Collects the performance data of monitoring agents and monitors thresholds. Processes the data when real-time reports are displayed in the PFM - Web Console browser. Remote Monitor Store Performance data management Records the collected performance data into the Store database and manages this data. Processes the data when historical reports are displayed in the PFM - Web Console browser. Processes the data when ODBC-compliant application programs are used.
(2) Starting instances
Some PFM - Agent or PFM - RM products can monitor every instance# of a target program.
- #
- The term instance has two meanings in this manual. For details, see instance in J. Glossary.
For example, PFM - Agent for Oracle monitors each Oracle instance with an SID. In such cases, you need to construct an instance environment to run PFM - Agent services with multiple instances.
Figure 4-2 Example of starting an instance
For details on the possibility of instance-based monitoring, and how to construct an instance environment, see the PFM - Agent or PFM - RM manual.
